i see them everywhere

I really do.The way the tape measure fell next to my desk. (I swear to absolute goodness. It made me gasp.)Under the coffee maker. (I know, right!?)And then, there. In the sugar, on the snickerdoodle pie.Could it be any cuter?!

This morning, a big glob of jelly landed on the counter. You guested it... shaped like a heart.

Not sure exactly what it all means. Maybe I should have been a heart doctor?I don't love the ingredients in this one. However, Charlie asked for the original snickerdoodles. Not just "cinnamon" cookies. I must say, they are pretty darn good. I didn't feel like rolling them into balls, therefore, decided to press it into the pan.

My Father-in-law passed away about 8 years ago and for a while after my Mother-in-law saw hears everywhere (she even took a picture of a rubber band bent like a heart to show us all). To her, they were messages from him. I'd like to think she's right. (he was a constant prankster, so he doesn't leave hearts at our house, we just blame him for everything out of the ordinary)

I loved this post!! Hearts everywhere...how wonderful. The little sugar heart is the sweetest. I agree with previous posters that you have to be paying attention to see things like this. You are truly living and enjoying the world around you!

I am looking forward to your Snickerdoodle Brownie recipe. How great that you are aware enough to see the wonderful things around you. I agree, they are messages and you made someone very happy by seeing them.

Looking or not, you'll find yourself surrounded by love! My son (19) loves snickerdoodles. I don't really like to make them because of the crisco. But when I do I always remember that I like them too! Maybe I'll have to make some for him in the next week or so. He's soon heading into the Marines, so I try to do things for him now that I won't be able to do for awhile.
